Thank you.
Your website tells us that 2% of complaints each year are section 13 hate speech complaints. This indicates that so-called hate speech complaints are a relatively minor portion of what the commission does. What's even more interesting is that it's the same individual responsible for virtually every section 13 complaint that has been sent forward to the tribunal in the last eight years. I'm sure you know Richard Warman. Since 2001 there have been 14 complaints that resulted in a decision from the tribunal. Of those 14 complaints, 12 have been brought by Richard Warman. Essentially, without Mr. Warman it would appear that the law would not really be used that much at all.
Is it true that Richard Warman has received over $50,000 in awards through the tribunal process over the years? Is it also true that the commission has given him thousands of dollars more in expenses, as a so-called witness to his own complaints?
